If you elect me as your dictator, all Archived repositories on GitHub/GitLab/Codeberg/etc will be required by law to say why they are archived.
The penalty for non-compliance shall be a light (for I am merciful) public flogging, repeated only once a month (for I am merciful) until compliance is achieved.
For those who cannot muster even a sentence of explanation, several generic but sufficient explanations will be made available for you to copy-paste from (for I am merciful), such as
"this package is still perfectly good, but I am no longer maintaining it",
"I have realized there are flaws in the design which are best solved with an alternative API/workflow/etc",
"this was just experimental, it's probably still very broken" and
"this has been superseded by a superior [upstream | 3rd-party] solution".
lead just said make your code as short as possible. Make it unreadably short. You’re not writing for readability. But someone new reading it should understand. But there would be no comments. And make the variables two letters. Godspeed. Is this man secretly making a Chanel advert. Head in my hands.
